I'll sum it up with the simplest of irrational points:
1) Why does Spider-Man keep capping off his battles by removing his mask in very public squares and at world-famous tourist attractions (in broad daylight, mind you) where there are absolutely countless security cameras and countless witnesses and literally thousands of windows looking down on him? It's improbable that there are no witnesses.
2) Why are there never any first responders? Avengers present or not, it's inconceivable that no emergency teams or good samaritans would be on hand in the aftermath of any of these tragedies, especially when one of said attacks goes down mere feet from London City Hall and the place where the Crown Jewels are kept. And yet, as the dust settles, there are no cheers of victory from a spectating crowd, no reporters, no ambulances, no police sirens approaching, no survivors rushing back to see if anyone needs help, no wounded to contend with... only silence and calm as the movie characters converse in the rubble.
3) Speaking of chaos: why are people just hanging out in bars, strolling up and down the street, as if nothing went down a few blocks away, mere moments after a fire monster obliterated a festival in the square? And more importantly:
4) Why aren't the parents of these children DEMANDING that their kids be sent home on the next flight from Venice after a water monster obliterated the city? Instead they're off to Prague?? And more importantly:
5) Why aren't the parents of these children DEMANDING that their kids be sent home on the next flight from Prague after a fire monster obliterated the square, shortly after a water monster has already obliterated part of Venice? Instead they're off to London?? And more importantly:
6) Why would Mysterio wait for them to go all the way to London before attempting to kill them? They know his secret! Even a moment's delay could expose him. He has the ability to wipe them out immediately. Down their plane! Derail their train! Crash their bus! Pick them off with the drones! Could it be that he can't because the writers didn't apply logic to this story choice? They needed to shoehorn the characters into a big, epic final battle? Could that also be why Spidey keeps taking off his mask? Because our leading man has to show his face once in a while, even if it makes absolutely zero sense?
Lastly, 7) Why even bother going to all the trouble to hide your identity when you're just going to don the Spider-Man outfit and swing through the busy streets of New York with a screaming MJ in your arms? Anyone who knows that Peter and MJ are a couple will instantly notice this odd behavior and make the connection. Anyone who's even remotely curious (or a reporter) will be curious who Spider-Man is snuggling up to and dig deeper... until they make the connection.
Sony needs to take a lesson from Disney on how to do these movies right, or surrender the rights. It's embarrassing that this got as far as it did without someone realizing all the glaring holes. It's eye-candy with no true effort, apart from the cast who do the best they can with what they're given. Absolute rubbish.
